Parents, students await SAT scores

School’s out for the summer, but more than a few parents and students will be keeping a close eye on the mail. On Tuesday, June 14, Idaho school officials will release statewide data indicating how high schoolers performed on their Scholastic Assessment Tests. The SATs, taken by thousands of college-bound high-school juniors and seniors, remain the benchmark for acceptance into many U.S. universities. The results for Idaho were not good in 2015, particularly in math and critical reading scores. However, there were revisions to the 2016 SATs, including no penalties for guessing, a greater emphasis on word meanings and a new scoring range: 400-1600./ George Prentice , Boise Weekly.
